ComboProf: changing money

[ComboProf]

Well my bankroll has migrated its way into Canadian Dollors
and I am in Las Vegas next week. The only bank I have
available in my small town is Wells Fargo and they charge
around 8 percent, i.e. $1 CDN gets me $0.92 USD
Can I get a better deal in Las Vegas?

I believe that you can get much better rates at some of the larger casinos on the Strip. I know MGM Grand is one that offers currency exchange, i'm sure bellagio does to, and i vaguely remember looking at the post rates and being very impressed with how close they were to actual rates.

So I called the hotel (Imperial Palace) that I will be staying at and also I also called the our only local bank (Wells Fargo) that will change Canadian dollars to U.S.dollars. The difference was 8 cents per dollar. So it is definitely worth it to change currency in Las Vegas.
